This will make Jim a happy lad I assume.

I found it at my GameStop. They had five sealed copies and no used.

On that note, what's with the stupid ass giant red tie on Adell?

I don't know. I suppose NIS likes to put random things on each of their protagonists. Laharl and Ash have their ties, Zetta is a book, and Adell has his tie. I like the tie, but it is a bit too long. Not like it affects gameplay, though.

It just made me think "What is he? In Green Day or something?"

I thought Zeno Clash was pretty horrible. It had an akward story, really poor voice acting, and repetitive gameplay. I admire its vision in terms of making a "story structured brawler", but thats about it. Its probably worth $10 though.

Dude, you need to learn the joys of using apostrophes. Also, awkward is one awkward word, so I don't blame you for misspelling it.

Yea I'm in a rush: I just saw a giant poster of Zeno Clash and had terrible flashbacks. Need to finish Sigma 2!

I tried the demo of that, but found out that I was absolutely awful at it. Is this something I'll get better at, or should I just abandon my action game dreams?

@SWPM
It's actually REALLY easy compared to any other Ninja Gaiden. I'd recommend renting it if you're cautious, as it has a lot of safeguards that make the game easier.

I was actually thinking about this earlier. I looked at the 40-ish action games I own, and thought to myself "Sigma 2 is probably one of the most user friendly of this lot".

I tried the Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 demo and couldn't even bring myself to play past that buddha statue boss...I dunno, I'm not saying it's bad, just felt tired and kinda generic. Maybe it's the fact that I've never been into the series, but it lacked the "punch" I found in God of War and the fun of Devil May Cry. Of course I only played like 15 minutes so feel free to contradict me, GO

Valkyria Chronicles makes me want a PS3.

My unplayed copies of Disgaea 2 and SMT: Persona for PSP make me want a PSP.

And my unplayed PSP makes me want Valkyria Chronicles 2.

And my unplayed PSP that makes me want Valkyria Chronicles 2 makes me want a PS3 to play Valkyria Chronicles 1.

I got to like, the second mission and I sucked at it. I don't want to part with the game, though.

Uncharted 2 and Demon's Souls for the PS3-exclusive win.

**Jesus H Christ** · 10-01-2009, 06:57 AM

Valkyria Chronicles is hard. I had to put it down for a whole month because I was so frustrated with mission 7. It's probably my second favorite PS3 exclusive though, after MGS4.

**Magnalon** · 10-01-2009, 09:39 AM

Did any of you play the superior Ninja Gaiden 1 (Xbox)? Very little blood: no problem! Sigma 2 is excellent any way you cut it, because it feels more like the experience the original Xbox version gave in more ways than one.

**Magnalon** · 10-01-2009, 10:45 AM

OMG UNCHARTED 2 GOT a 7 STOP THE FUCKING PRESSES!

I'm sold.

Unrelated question:

I just beat arcade mode with Ken on the easiest option getting two perfects and two ultra finishes but Akuma didn't show. Yes, I have unlocked all the other characters that are needed. Is this bound to higher difficulties?

They just announced Hazama for the revamped Blazblue.

So.

Angry.

it.

Isn't.

Jubei.
